Ryan Anderson Meets with Kings...Trade Idea

[eyriq]

Kings would have to believe that we'd match Anderson should they sign him to an offer sheet for them to find a trade in their best interest. IMO they offer him a pretty good contract of 40M/4yrs and we match anyway. The highest they can go is 13M/yr as that is his max level coming off a rookie contract.

[SacTown Kings]

The Kings would not trade their 2nd best player and one of their best trading chips for Ryan Anderson who they can try and sign outright if Orlando doesn't match. Maybe a sign and trade with Thompson, but Evans?

[MoMM]

Only thing we can hope to get from the Kings is a heavily protected 2nd round pick and a trade exception.

I agree.

The latest rumor is that this 4/40 deal would be front-loaded to scare off the Magic. I am not sure that that is "scary." But Orlando is unlikely to see Anderson as a long-term guy and getting young assets for him should be enough.

But a SnT to Sac makes a bunch of sense for both teams. The Kings start a core around Anderson and Cousins. Tyler Honeycutt and a future first could be enough. As the Kings have cap space, the salaries do not need to match.

i d love to see a S&T Ryan for Garcia(expiring)+ future 1st

D12+JR for Bynum (extended)+Mcrobert(expiring)+future 1st http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=83s4lvv

PG:Nelson,Duhon (1.5 M in 13),ish
SG:JJ (expiring),liggins,Garcia
SF:Hedo(6M$ in 13),Earl,Garcia,Q
PF:BBD,nicholson,Earl,harper,Mc robert(expiering)
C:Bynum,Oquinn


bynum contract after extention should be around 18M in 2013 so with his contract our total salary will be around 40M$, so still a big player in 2013 Free agency, enough to max Harden

i m not even talking about the player we might get at trade deadline using all our expiering contracts

The Sacramento Kings are expected to offer Orlando Magic restricted free agent Ryan Anderson a front-loaded contract soon, according to Steve Kyler of HoopsWorld.

I posted it in another thread.

Nicolas Batum has agreed to a four-year, $45 million offer sheet with the Wolves.

Bonuses could push the deal to $50 million.

Batum: 23 years old,
30.4mpg, .451% fg, .391% 3pt, .836% FT, 1.4orpg 3.2drpg 4.6rpg 1.4apg 1.0spg 1.0bpg 1.5to 1.8fouls 13.9ppg

Ryno: 24 years old,

Will Ryan get a +11M offer?

After reading Skin's post the SnT option looks unlikely.

If the Kings are trying to get the Magic NOT to match, I don't see why we wouldn't work out some kind of S&T. The Kings could then distribute Anderson's pay any way they wanted... front loaded, back loaded or whatever.

Jason Thompson has an offer from the Kings too, that sits at $6M per year. Thompson is holding out for more.

Just give us Jason Thompson at $7M per year and we can call it even. Kings under the cap can take back more than they dish out.

If we did this, then I'd be fine with trading for Bynum.

[eyriq]

I don't see us not matching, or trading Anderson for that matter, as long as Dwight is on the team or Bynum is our top target in a trade for Dwight.

The only thing your forgetting is that batum is one of the best defenders in the nba, while Ryno is a terrible defender. That's a huge difference!

[Skin]

Even if we got a 2nd rounder for not matching, that's at least something. If we get NOTHING, I will be disappointed.

[londoncollin]

Maybe I'm missing something, but wouldn't a front loaded contract help us too? Because it allows us to have more capspace in the future when we want to go after free agents.

I agree with you, their reason to offer a front-loaded contract is not to scary Orlando, but because they will have to give a big paycheck to Cousins and Tyreke in the next years.

What will scary Orlando is the BIG offer (11M a year), not if its front-loaded or not.

[AdamTheGreek]

I wouldn't be shocked to see a $12.5 million first season deal offered by the Kings. The market is so overinflated it's ridiculous. Anything over $10 million and I'd let Ryno walk, as much as that would suck.
